Guest guest Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 Hi All, This is my 18 month update. Just to give a little history, I am a 32 year old male who was diagnosed with Relapsing-Remitting MS in October of 2001. I was on the CRABS for three years. I quickly deteriorated in particular toward the end of that time, winding up in a wheelchair and for 5 months and legally blind for 18 months. Three months into my wheel chair nightmare, I was surfing the internet and stumbled across information on a drug called LDN. Two months later I stopped taking the CRABS completely and began started the LDN. In less than a week, I was out of the wheelchair yet still using the walls to walk and balance myself. Being determined, I began to exercise at home, I was able to stand-up showers, started the Swank diet, and continued a strict vitamin regimen. Now after 18 months on LDN, I mow my own grass with a self- propelled mower, my vision impairment has improved enough that I have just been approved to drive during daylight hours. I also attend aqua therapy at the YMCA three times a week while exercising at home another three days during the week. I live alone and perform my own housework. I anticipate that in mid-summer I will start physical therapy. Overall, I do very well managing the symptoms with the LDN. My worst day now is much better than my best day pre-LDN. During this entire time since my diagnosis, I have maintained the attitude that I would rather try and fail 1,000 times than never try at all. I am so thankful that I got off the CRABS and started LDN. To any and all people that are still on the fence or researching LDN use for their condition, I urge you to go ahead and start it now while continuing your research. It has already been shown that LDN is not harmful however, most individuals on this forum who have already started using LDN regret that they did not start it sooner.
